We are a small NGO undertaking ground-breaking work, forming creative cross-sectoral partnerships and successfully leveraging project data to change global policy. But we have no legal expertise. Without Trustlaw’s introduction of Milbank, our attention would have been diverted from where we are global experts, designing cross-sectoral partnership projects, to drafting a complex international agreement. By working with Trustlaw and Milbank, we were confident that our legal work was of the same standard as our international development work and our tight budgets were spent on project delivery for marginalised communities rather than legal advice. The support was invaluable.
The legal service provided by TrustLaw was immensely valuable and will have a lasting effect on our organisation. Much of our work touches upon legal sensitivities in our markets, each of which has complex and varied laws and regulations about our areas of investigation. For us to advise our partners and comment confidentially, having the option of legal advice is not only beneficial, but crucial.
Research projects such as the Rainbow Families publication have a significant impact on societal understanding for minority issues. We hope the insights from this research can drive broader social change by challenging current workplace practices and providing practical recommendations to improve LGBT+ workplace equality. The research also helps us to remain as thought leaders in this space and keep driving the conversation around these important issues.
Trustlaw and its Pro Bono partners provided One Tree Planted with a global regulatory guide on drone use. This invaluable resource enables us to effectively utilise drones for capturing imagery, enhancing our reforestation projects by improving tree survival rates, project impacts, and monitoring capabilities
